Valspar

Polar Ice

P065

Valspar Polar Ice is a bright aqua green with a frosted, watery look. It can freshen a bathroom or laundry room with very little help. The blue green stays clean.

Because it bounces plenty of light, it may look almost pastel white in strong sun. White tile, polished chrome, or pale maple keeps the result crisp. Study it beside afternoon sun.

Polar Ice in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
